README

This package will allow Faker to generate incrementing, decrementing and manual sequences.

Install

To install, use composer:

composer require dlnsk/faker-sequence

Use

Laravel

This package supports Laravel's auto discovering, so you don't have to do anything else.

If you want to use the package in tests initialize sequences in setUp:

public function setUp(): void {
    ...
    $faker = app(\Faker\Generator::class);
    $faker->initSequence('seq_name', ['one', 'two']);
}

Other frameworks

# When installed via composer
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

$faker = \Faker\Factory::create();
$faker->addProvider(new \Dlnsk\Faker\SequenceProvider($faker));

Generate

Numeric sequences

Quick use

echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 0
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 1

$faker->resetSequence('seq_name');
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 0

Initialization

$faker->initSequence(
    $name,          // Sequence name. You can use number of sequences simultaneously
    $start = 0,     // Starting value
    $step = 1,      // Sequence step, may be positive or negative
    $bound = null,  // Value that can be reached
    $loop = false   // Loop sequence or throw the exception NoMoreException on the bound
);

Improved use

$faker->initSequence('seq_name', 10, -2);
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 10
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 8

$faker->initSequence('seq_name', 0, 2, 5);
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 0
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 2
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 4
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // throw NoMoreException

$faker->initSequence('seq_name', 0, 2, 5, true);
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 0
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 2
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 4
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // 0

Iterable sequences

Initialization

$faker->initSequence(
    $name,          // Sequence name. You can use number of sequences simultaneously
    $collection,    // Array or iterable object
    $loop = false   // Loop sequence or throw the exception NoMoreException on the end
);

Using

$faker->initSequence('seq_name', ['one', 'two']);
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // one
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // two
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // throw NoMoreException

$faker->initSequence('seq_name', ['one', 'two'], true)
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // one
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // two
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // one

$singers = Employee::where('salary', '>', 10000)->get();
$faker->initSequence('seq_name', $singers);
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // { 'firstname' => 'Bob', 'lastname' => 'Dylan'}
echo $faker->nextInSequence('seq_name');    // { 'firstname' => 'Laura', 'lastname' => 'Marling'}
